Sammy Kershaw - Don't Go Near The Water guitar chord

DON'T GO NEAR THE WATER

Sammy Kershaw

Key of G

Your (G) mamma used to worry 'bout that big muddy river

(F) Honey, (C) do you (D) remember

You let the (G) screen door slam when you stepped off the front porch

You heard your mamma callin' don't be late

(F) I'd hear your daddy holler, (C) "Son, she's my honey (G) daughter"

You'd stick your (F) nose in the honeysuckle down by the gate

I can (C) still hear your mama calling, "don't go near the (G) water"

We (G) fell right (F) in way (C) over our (F) heads

But, we (G) didn't go (F) near the (C) water (F)

In (G) love - in (F) deep - so (C) young and (F) sweet

And the (D) nights got hotter and (D7) hotter

We were (G) sure 'nuff (F) gettin' our (C) feet wet, (F) mama

But, we (G) didn't go (F) near the (C) water

You hear the (G) rockin' chair squeakin' when you stepped off the back steps

Mama waitin' like a grizzley bear

(F) Had to get the honeysuck(C)le out of your (G) hair

But, in the (F) morning light, you looked her right in the eye

It (C) wasn't a lie, we didn't go near the (G) water

We (G) fell right (F) in way (C) over our (F) heads

But, we (G) didn't go (F) near the (C) water (F)

In (G) love - in (F) deep - so (C) young and (F) sweet

And the (D) nights got hotter and (D7) hotter

We were (G) sure 'nuff (F) gettin' our (C) feet wet, (F) mama

But, we (G) didn't go (F) near the (C) water (F)

Your (G) mama used to worry 'bout that big muddy river

(D) She shoulda worried 'bout (D7) me

We were (G) sure 'nuff (F) gettin' our (C) feet wet, (F) mama

But, we (G) didn't go (F) near the (C) water (F)

(F) Didn't go (C) near the (G) water

(F) Didn't go (C) near the water (G)
